they may just pry off if u don't see screws.

nstructions
1
Turn the radio on and remove any tapes or CDs you may have in it.

2
Turn off the vehicle and the accessory power.
With your car in park, put the parking brake on so that the car can't move while you're working on it.

4
Use an adjustable ("crescent-style") wrench to remove the negative battery cable from the battery. Loosen the nut and bolt on the cable terminals and slip it off of the battery post.

5
Insert a set of DIN tools into the openings on either side of the front of the radio, and push in until you feel a click. DIN tools are simple metal, U-shaped tools that are designed to disengage the catches holding the radio in place. You can purchase them at car audio shops or auto supply shops.

6
Spread the DIN tools outward and pull the radio towards you until you can reach the backside of the radio.

7
Disconnect the white plug and the antenna plug (silver) by pulling them away from the radio.

8
Pull the radio completely out of the dash.
